About Dupont Modules Reef

Dupont Modules Reef is an artificial reef in the federal Gulf waters off Panama City, Florida, positioned at 29.9866, -85.8553. The site consists of placed reef modules that add hard vertical relief to the surrounding Gulf seafloor and concentrate marine life around otherwise open bottom. Its location in federal waters places it beyond the state boundary, so trips here run offshore from the Panama City inlets. No species records or seasonal peak windows are on file for this reef, and anglers rely on their own observations and local reports to judge what holds on the structure through the year. Precise coordinates matter here, because the modules form a compact target that rewards careful positioning over the structure itself.
